Sir, can u send me this ppt plz🙏

Although I have an _”ancient”_ (1976) degree in electrical engineering, I do have one question: In an area where both 12 Kv and 4 kv distribution systems are used, as a rule of thumb, is one more susceptible than the other to subjecting the end user (120/240v, 1Φ, 3 wire, overhead) to lightning and/or switching surges?

As an electrician, I am always irked by the myth of Tesla being still perpetuated. It was not Edison vs Tesla, but Edison vs Westinghouse. Edison and Tesla got along just fine, and spoke well of each other. The three phase 3 wire system that we use was not invented by Tesla, but by Mikhail Dolivo-Dobrovolsky, a Russian/Polish engineer, electrician, and inventor in the 1880s. Tesla's 3 phase system was a beast that required 6 wires, and like most of his wacky ideas, was thankfully never adopted. Tesla was a clever Hitler loving wack job with some bright ideas, but did not contribute nearly as much to electrical systems as people give him credit for. The reason for his "suppression" was that many unthinkable concepts, such as the atomic bomb, were becoming reality during WW2, so the US Department of Defense classified all of Tesla's work due to his close ties and support of Hitler and the Nazis in order to prevent any possible technology from falling into Nazi hands. As it turned out, Tesla's ideas, such as death rays, did not actually work very well, as extensive testing by the US department of defense discovered.
